Abstract: A cooling apparatus for a pluggable module comprises a pluggable module cage to house the pluggable module and a heat pipe coupled with a hot interface at one end and a cold interface at another end. The cooling apparatus further comprises an attachment mechanism for attaching the hot interface and the heat pipe to the pluggable module. The attachment mechanism permits mobility required to insert and secure the pluggable module in place inside the pluggable module cage to allow a good thermal coupling between the hot interface and the pluggable module.

Abstract: A wet coating composition useful for coating a cellulosic fiber-based substrate is provided. The composition includes two aqueous emulsions. The first emulsion includes an oxidized paraffin/polyethylene wax and the second emulsion includes an ethylene/acrylic acid copolymer wax, ethylene/acrylic amide copolymer wax, ethylene/acrylic acid/acrylic amide copolymer wax or a mixture thereof. The oxidized paraffin/polyethylene wax has a surface energy less than or equal to 25 mN/m being substantially dispersive energy. The wet coating composition when dried forms a coating having a surface energy ranging from 20 to 60 mN/m being the sum of dispersive and polar energies. A process for treating a cellulosic fiber-based substrate with the wet coating composition, a substrate coated and articles including the coated substrate are also described. The process involves a heating step to allow migration of the coating towards a core of the cellulosic fiber-based substrate.

Abstract: An enclosure with hybrid thermal management for a heat-generating electronic device comprises a passive heat sink for conducting heat away from the electronic device, a cold skin adapted to slide over the top of the passive heat sink and having a front wall forming a plurality of air intake ports, and a plurality of blowers mounted inside the cold skin for drawing air into the cold skin though the air intake ports and then directing the air through the passive heat sink. In one implementation, the passive heat exchanger includes multiple thermally conductive fins adjacent to the electronic device and extending rearwardly from the intake ports, the fins being spaced apart from each other for conducting heat away from the electronic device. The blowers preferably direct air rearwardly from the intake ports in the front wall into the spaces between the thermally conductive fins.
